    Hello to all,
    here is a simple example of graph in PyQT4. Actual time is shown in simple GUI, special button is made for calling a graph with one curve which contains 61 points. Data is stored into buffers and updated when time is xx:xx:05. Data in buffer is mooved for one place to left (value of buffer[1] goes to buffer[0] and so on, in buffer[60] new value comes). When script is started X axis is built from 0 (left) to 60 (right) poits. What I would like to have on x axis instead of constants from 0 - 60 is actual time in minutes.
    Is that even possible and how to do it?

    import gui
    import sys

    from graph import simple_graph
    from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui

    if __name__ == "__main__":
    
        app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
    
        def time_show():
            now = datetime.datetime.now()
            master.Time.setText(now.strftime("%H" + ":" + "%M" + ":" + "%S"))
    
            if ((now.strftime("%S")) == ("05")):
                master.update_buffer_minute()
    
        gui_master = gui.QtGui.QTabWidget()
        master = gui.Ui_Izbira()
        master.setupUi(gui_master)
    
        # Buttons
        master.pushButton_Graph.clicked.connect(simple_graph)
    
        # Timer - Trigers updating of time label every second
